What Causes Frequent Vomiting While Having Gastroschisis?
My five year old some was born with gastroschisis and has been recently having frequent vomiting. he has an episode of vomiting every 2 weeks for the past 6 weeks. He seems to have been having more and more vomiting over the past year or so. I m concerned that he has scar tissue that is causing his vomiting. Should I take him to see the doctor? What type of treatment would he get if it is just scar tissue? When should I be extremely concerned of his symptoms?

Hello
For this reason, I would recommend consulting with his attending pediatrician and performing a fibrogastroscopy. Surgery may be needed, besides ranitidine or antacids.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
